Bill and Linda – 2019

Mr. Raf,

My husband Bill and I want to thank you for officiating our wedding ceremony. We wanted to talk with you and let you know in person but seems you left quickly before we had a chance to convey our thanks. Just want you to know that we enjoyed it very much and so did our wedding guests. They talked about the way you officiated with positive energy and a little humor too. Our quests quoted some of your words and said you were fabulous. We were very happy and only wish we could have told you in person and also invited you to toast and enjoy the aperitif with us.

I am happy to recommend you for your professional and personalized wedding services and your efficiency and organization. It was impressive that you copied the poem for my daughter to read on short notice too. Bravo, Mr Raf!

With our sincere gratitude,

Linda West

Ben and Holly – September 2017

The personal touch of Mr Raf’s wedding planning service is what sets him apart because it comes from genuine kindness and love for what he does.

No job is too big or too much hassle and without it all costing the earth, his local knowledge and connections are amazing so our dream wedding was made possible with Mr Raf by our side!

David and Alexandra – 2017

Mr Raf gave us an absolutely perfect wedding day from start to finish. It was everything we had dreamt of and more. From our first meeting with him in October 2016 to our wedding day in June 2017 he was always on hand to answer any questions we had and calm any nerves.

He arranged every detail from what were probably sometimes quite confused requests on our part and had a wonderful way of steering us in the right direction.

He knew what we wanted better than we knew ourselves!

Everything on the day was absolutely perfect, it was like a fairy tale.                    The venues, the flowers, the service, the photographer, the wedding table, everything was just fabulous and he was there throughout the day smiling as he always does to reassure us and ensure everything went smoothly. He was welcoming and helpful to all of our family and friends too throughout the day.

Mr Raf is more than a wedding planner, he is a friend and we are so happy we chose him to help us. We will always return to Amalfi and will always meet up with Mr Raf when we are there to celebrate our weeding and our friendship with him.

Beau and Nadine – 2022

We eloped to Amalfi and we’re lucky enough to have Raf plan everything for us.

He made the process so easy from helping us with vendors to picking a place for dinner.

Raf made us feel comfortable and the entire process was easy.

No matter what questions we asked or changes we wanted to make, he was there to help.

Would 100% recommend Raf, he really made our day so special.

Richard and Jennifer – 2022

We can not recommend Raf highly enough as a wedding planner! He took on our challenging case and made our dream wedding come true – an intimate ceremony in a beautiful and romantic 14^th century church on the Amalfi Coast.

We contacted Raf from the US in May, only 4 months before our wedding date, hoping to have a combined Catholic & Civil ceremony in early September (a very popular time for weddings in Italy). On top of our tight timeline, the Catholic part presented special challenges as one of us was non-Catholic.

Raf delivered above and beyond our expectations. The outcome was so special to us and the process was also wonderful; he clearly loves what he does and is a joy to work with. He made what could have been a very stressful process incredibly easy.

Raf clearly communicated the somewhat daunting paperwork requirements upfront and assured us that if we followed his instructions carefully, we could accomplish our goals. He was responsive, supportive and an excellent problem solver throughout the process. When we struggled to get some needed appointments for the paperwork in Italy, he made them for us and attended some on our behalf. His relationships with local authorities were invaluable and definitely facilitated our process. And he does it all – he even acted as translator for our application filings with the Catholic church and local authorities and during our ceremony (the Priest did the service in Italian). He also arranged for a special priest to do our ceremony who was understanding of our mixed-religion situation and delivered a very meaningful ceremony. And his vendors were also very high quality and reasonably priced; working only from a couple of photos of flowers I liked, his florist created a stunning bouquet that I absolutely loved!

On top of it all, he’s really a good guy! From the moment we first reached out to him to our arrival on the Amalfi coast (where he scooped us up at the train station with a big smile and reassuring hug) we knew we were in great hands!

We are forever indebted to you Raf – Grazie Mille!
